The title pretty much sums up my question..
Thanks in advance.
A:
You have to set the solution (and all other files that you want to protect) to read-only on the operating system level. So for windows select the files, then right click, select properties and then check the read-only check box. The read-only annotation shows up when you are reloading the project. To make the solution/project writeable just uncheck the read-only checkbox.
Note: When setting the solution to read-only, you cannot add any new projects to it, however, the projects remain writeable.

Also note that users with sufficient rights can just remove the read-only flag.

I see. Do you know if there's a way to make the code inside my solution read-only?

You cannot make protect the code from inside VS as it is there for editing the files. To protect your code you have to set the .cs files to read-only.
